- Kayleigh HarringtonJuly 16, 2016First time here? Get the fried chicken. Second time? The sausage biscuit egg and cheese with a side of pickles. Go early to avoid the crowds or be prepared to get a cocktail and wait for a table.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
- ℳ𝒶𝓎♍October 22, 2017This is one of the most popular spots on the UWS and you don't need to like pickles to enjoy this southern hot spot. Best brunch on the UWS and a great place to grab a drink and late night feast
- I've tried a lot of stuff here and it's all great. I love the ham egg & cheese on a biscuit, the BBQ jack sandwich, and the jam jar. Always expect a wait here! 🍗🍳🍓
- Eric FriedmanMarch 31, 2014The fried pickles with spicy red mayo app. are delicious if you love pickles. Plenty to share here as these deep fried sticks make for a great compliment to this places awesome beer selection.
- ブルーノOctober 6, 2015Came here on a Sunday for brunch (more than 1hr to get a table!) but the wait was so worth it. Super crowded, but the food is good and the cocktails are great. Loved the Rosemary vodka lemonade. Yum.
- Cizenbayan Elif TanverdiApril 1, 2016Service is outstanding. Everything very delicios. the presentation of the bloody mary is epic. it's a breakfast on its own. Go 1 hour ahead and reserve your table. its worth the wait
- Eric FriedmanMarch 31, 2014I challenge you to eat the southern BLT like a sandwich! Between the friend green tomatoes, incredible buttermilk fried chicken, and the towering pickle slaw this is a mountain of food!
- Marina LordeloOctober 13, 2017It's a good place to go, friendly and with a delicious food. I've been there with my 2-y-old daughter and the music it was little bit loud to us. The food is well served! Be careful or will waste.
- Diana ArzNovember 20, 2018This place is so good. I never tried fried pickles, but now I think it’s the best thing ever. The BLT sandwich could feed a family, it’s huge, so was the pancakes with fried chicken (super delicious)
- EaterMarch 4, 2014The Founders Rübæus, or the Peak Organic Fresh Cut Pils (probably the best beer they’ve ever made), are a great for balancing the acid of the pickling liquid.
- Chad HornerSeptember 9, 2016chicken and pancakes! what a combo. Jacob's is an amazing value in terms of the calories you get for your dollar; make sure you get the biscuits, and be prepared for a wait beforehand
- Paige COctober 28, 2017From the eclectic seasonal cocktails to the massive portions of southern inspired dishes, this place has everything. Good for dates or even for a group. Don’t miss the fried chicken & pancakes.
- Elizabeth BursteinNovember 17, 2021Had really good southern food. Fried pickles, fried chicken sando, corn. Lemonade was a bit tart.
- Matt ZoufalyMarch 21, 2015I love this place. Appetizers are amazing (Get the biscuits and fixins!) Drink selection is fantastic. The porch sipper is good for anyone who likes whiske. Definitely an uws staple for me.
- Eric FriedmanMarch 31, 2014The salad wedge appetizer is an amazing amalgam of blue cheese, cherry tomatoes, bacon, and of course lettuce. True: delicious, crunchy, crisp, flavorful. False: nutritious.
- Stephanie DeDeckerMarch 11, 2018Amazing southern food, probably my favorite restaurant in the UWS as well. They don’t take reservations for parties under 6 so put your name down and check out E’s bar next door while you’re waiting
- Chicken bacon egg & cheese on a biscuit is the best choice for brunch or dinner. Start with a rosemary vodka lemonade and a pickle sampler. The mac & cheese is amazing, but leaves you feeling guilty.
- DevontaJuly 23, 2016A pleasant surprise. Jacob's Pickles has some of the best Soul Food in New York City. The servings are enough for 2. Pick your favorite and go for it!
- Malte BossenNovember 7, 2018Very amazing food! Be aware: the plates are big. We ordered two plates to share together, could only finish half. Was worth to try both though!
- Kira Garvin LermanJuly 25, 2014Def not vegan friendly (except for pickles) so eat ahead of time! Awesome beer selection, including homemade rootbeer, and great ambience make up for this, though!
- Ian CheeNovember 18, 2019Baby back ribs are good—the flavorful meat easily fall off the bones. Don’t forget the poutine and the specials. Just a warning: you might end up with more taters on the table than expected!
- Rachel HadleyMarch 24, 2013Best meal in NYC so far. Sausage gravy buttermilk fried chicken biscuit is like a hug in your mouth. Grits are just okay. All endorsed by a true Southerner.
- Jim RaySeptember 8, 2018Everything here should work: great combinations of flavor, extensive beer list, cool atmosphere, even the music (too loud tho). The food was bland, the shared tables too crowded, service overworked.
- Weekends are packed, get here when they open at 9am to ensure a table. Otherwise, they will text you when your table is ready so grab a brew next door at E's bar - reasonable prices for craft beer.
- Avneesh KohliMarch 25, 2018The fried chicken and pancakes are heaven in your mouth. Be warned though: the serving size is enough for 2 people! If you’ve got room, try the mac and cheese too!
- Bev Opie-OrtlandJune 4, 2014The food here is fantastic! The shredded pickles with the chicken are just an irresistible combination (even though it sounds weird). The collard greens are good too -- not too vinegary.
- Reign LowDecember 8, 2013I done fell in love with Jacob Pickles Awesome meal honey chicken on a biscuit topped with pickles and grits on the side delish!. Sippin' on pink picket fence. Twice as nice lol Ah I will return!!' <3
- Lauren HansenMarch 20, 2016Amazing and totally worth the wait. Got the biscuit pancakes and biscuit egg sandwich - both were super tasty. Can't wait to go back and try more!
- My favorite restaurant in the city! I have never gotten anything here that I haven't loved. Make sure to get some pickles, dilly beans, candied beets, and something with biscuits (or a side order).
- SunainaJanuary 12, 2015Chicken good. Pancakes good. Bacon good. Grits good. Home fries good. Throw them all together, sip on some beer and you may just get transported to food heaven.
- Daniel MartinOctober 28, 2022Chicken Pancakes were fine. Chicken was acceptably crispy & moist, but a little bit spicy which I don‘t particularly like in this combination. Pancakes were okay. The portion easily feeds two people!
- Nicole ChecoFebruary 21, 2015I love this place! The portions are huge and so good. The mushroom mac n cheese is delicious. Their biscuit bread pudding is to die for! You wont regret ordering it. (:
- Andrew CFebruary 27, 2018Came for midnight drunk snacks... and OMG, so spectacular, esp the poutine dish (massive and not "real" with curds, but phenomenal) + so many pickled veggies (spiced to perfection)!!!
- Elizabeth BursteinAugust 14, 2021Honey fried chicken sando, reg mac and cheese, and corn. Sangria good. Brady got the peach drink which was ok. Big portions! Incredible biscuits.
- Mariuxi TapiaFebruary 22, 2017Ginormous portions! One dish can easily be split in two. Their sweet & spicy pickle is good. Lemonade is yummy. Got the honey chicken and biscuit- delicious & their grits are so cheesy and creamy.
- Alex Cruz-LebrónOctober 10, 2016GINOURMOUS food proportions! Highly recommend: assortment of pickled jars and street corn, Mushroom Chicken + Southern BLT biscuit sandwiches, buffalo mac & cheese, and fried oreos. Delicious!
- Elizabeth IrizAugust 15, 2016The biscuits and fixins is worth making room for but it's a healthy portion so consider sharing with the group. Start and end with the maple butter!!
- Ariana VoyerAugust 29, 2016Huge portions, amazing fried chicken sandwiches and surprisingly delicious cocktail menu. If you're into bloody Mary's, this is the place for it
- AngieApril 24, 2016I gave it another shot & had the fried chicken biscuit in mushroom gravy & it was delicious! I couldn't sub the cheese grits for mac & cheese so we shared it- it was a huge order plus creamy & cheesy.
- Alexandra TritzAugust 12, 2016Pancakes and chicken is really good as well as the mac and cheese ! The portions are huge, make sure you are hungry before coming or ask for a doggy bag to enjoy the deliciousness at home !
- Village VoiceApril 22, 2013Pickles are the bedrock of this fun-loving café that looks like an old-fashioned Jewish deli. They’re servin’ up Southern fare with a Jewish flare! Don’t miss the XL biscuit sandwich and fried Oreos.
- Eric FriedmanMarch 31, 2014The honey chicken and pickles biscuit sandwich is fantastic - swap out grits for fries if you want. Challenge yourself to actually eat it like a sandwich, but have tons of napkins on standby.
- Go to place with the bf :) amazing comfort food! Mac n cheese is legit, huge portions here. The fries are addicting and we love getting the green pickled tomatoes ! Burgers are great here as well
- Nikos B.LukasApril 22, 2023Lively place. Needs booking. Music, atmosphere and the food is delicious. Definitely one of the best for that kind of food and the prices are good. Portions are huge!
- StephanFebruary 2, 2020This place really gives you a run for your money. A1 spot. Low key vibes, food is AMAZING and well season. This is definitely a southern comfort soul food joint.
